So many things to enjoy here in so few words.

An old news report which reads: FIVE £1 NOTES BLOWN INTO SEA.
During the gale at Llandudno on Tuesday a woman opened her purse at the corner of a street and six £1 notes were blown out.. One was recovered by a boy, but the others were carried eastwards into the sea, followed a few minutes later by an umbrella.

Kinuyo Tanaka Initially an actor who worked with greats like Ozu and Mizoguchi, she later became the second woman to direct a film in Japan She made realistic films about working class women and dealt with subjects scarcely seen then, or since. This film is representative of her work

Name a film with a female director: Blue Black Permanent is a haunting film, suffused with grief, that moves between blue-hued cityscapes of Edinburgh and the clearer, whiter blues of Orkney. The story of a photographer, played by Celia Imrie, who is trying to come to terms with her mother's death.

If you want to imbibe something with Stephanie Cole in (and have already listened to Cabin Pressure 432 times), try her episode of The Cleaner, which is a two-hander with her and Greg Davies as a crime-scene clean-up guy. You don't have to have seen any other episodes: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

The Cleaner - Series 1: 4. The Aristocrat

Wicky arrives at a stately home to clean up a burglary gone wrong. But things aren’t what they seem, and Wicky’s morals are tested.

One of the things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now. The impulse to save something good for a better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from beneath, like well water. Similarly, the impulse to keep to yourself what you have learned is not only shameful, it is destructive. Anything you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your safe and find ashes.

What an incredibly thoughtful human being. Her point that over 1000 men being moved into a rural community would cause anxiety whatever their race feels like an essential one. I'd be way more worried about 1000 Tommy/Tommo white goons than I would be 1000 asylum seekers.

People talk a lot about the causes of declining birth rates, but it's really simple. People used to need enough kids to put on a touring Shakespeare production - maybe six, even eight. But with the rising popularity of Samuel Beckett? Two is sufficient.

Killer whales sink another boat off the coast of Spain — why are they still doing this after 6 years?

A small, endangered pod of orcas off Spain and Portugal has sunk at least eight boats since 2020, and despite speculation, the real explanation might have nothing to do with revenge.
